The trailer still needs some things

1) Spare Tire
Metro RV was going to charge me $250 for a spare tire and rim. I'm hoping to do this for less. So far I've learned that trailers need an "ST", rather than a "P" passenger or "LT" light truck tire. This article talks a lot about trailer tires.

2) New Frame Wheel Caster
The current one is a bit janky. The turn screw is rusted stuck which results in the tongue jack barely fitting. The whole thing looks like it could fly off. We've been keeping our feet clear.

3) Battery

4) Solar Panel

5) A Name
So far we haven't come up with the perfect name yet. Ideas so far are:
• Sparky
• 'Tater (as in a baked potato wrapped in foil)
• Sweetie
• Leche de Diablo
• Dusty
• Tiny
• Comet
• Astro

Suggestions welcome!

6) Curtains
Maybe some vintage fabric from here?

7) New Roof Vent

8) Seal the roof leak

9) Replace water damaged wood veneer
